EXPLORING ICELAND September 26-October 6, 2019

Dear ASU Alumni and Friends,

Travel with us on an exciting 11-day small group tour to explore the unique country of Iceland, a land of astonishing natural beauty, diverse landscapes, and a fascinating history.

A journey to the land of fire and ice brings you face-to-face with the wondrous forces of nature. Travel to Lake Myvatn, one of the world’s natural wonders, and stand on the edge of Europe’s largest and most powerful waterfall, Dettifoss. Experience Hljodaklettar’s remarkable basaltic rock columns, caves, and twisting towers then gaze into a long canyon created by enormous glacial floods at Asbyrgi. See the site of the country’s historic parliament founded in 930 ce in Thingvellir National Park. Walk along the black sand beach at Reynisfjara, visit Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls, and visit the region where one of Iceland’s beloved medieval sagas was set. Conclude your journey in lively, cosmopolitan Reykjavik.

We are pleased to share this departure with alumni and friends of UC Davis. Space is limited to just 24 guests in total from both schools, and will fill quickly. Please register today to guarantee your place on this memorable tour of Iceland!

Sincerely,

Christine K. Wilkinson, ’66 B.A.E., ’76 Ph.D. President & CEO, ASU Alumni Association Senior Vice President and Secretary of the University Managing Director, Trustees of ASU

Day 1: Depart U.S. for Reykjavik, Iceland

Day 2: Arrive Reykjavik/Borgarbyggo Upon our early morning arrival in Iceland’s capital, we meet our Odysseys Unlimited Tour Director and enjoy a scenic drive north, stopping for breakfast along the way. Then we take an excursion to the thermal areas of Deildartunguhver, site of the country’s largest thermal spring, and Hraunfossar Falls, beautiful and unusual cold springs that well up through the lava landscape. We also visit the Settlement Center, an interactive museum detailing the story of Iceland’s earliest settlers, including that of famed 10th-century Viking Egil Skallagrimsson. After reaching our hotel mid-afternoon, we have time to relax before this evening’s briefing on the journey ahead followed by a welcome dinner. B,D

Day 3: Borgarbyggo/Snaefellsnes Peninsula Today we encounter the stupendous scenery of the Snaefells nes Peninsula. We begin with a walk along the shell sand beach at the abandoned fishing village of Budir, surrounded by a vast lava field. We also explore the caves and bizarre rock forma-tions along the rugged shore at Arnarstapi, site of thousands of nesting cliff birds. After stopping for lunch – a traditional fresh seafood soup – at a rustic oceanfront restaurant, we visit Djupalonssandur where we see the haunting remains of abandoned coastal farms. B,L,D

Day 4: Borgarbyggo/Siglufjordur We travel to-wards the northeast corner of Iceland today, through the beautiful Norourardalur Valley. Along the way we stop at Grabrok Crater for scenic views, and at a Gauksmyri farm featuring famed Icelandic horses – small, hardy, and with long manes. We also tour Glaumbaer, a folk museum featuring authentic turf houses. We reach this small fishing village and our hotel in time for dinner there tonight. B,D

Day 5: Siglufjordur/Lake Myvatn/Jokulsargljufur National Park Today we travel to beautiful Lake Myvatn. One of the world’s natural wonders, Lake Myvatn and its environs of bubbling mud flats, lava

Exploring icEland11 days from $5,097 total price from Boston, New York, Wash, DC ($4,795 air & land inclusive plus $302 airline taxes and fees)

I t’s a surprising, even astonishing land; one of massive glaciers and rumbling volcanoes, bubbling mud holes and powerful waterfalls; hugely abundant bird

life and just 340,000 people; and where the sun never sets for six splendid weeks. It’s also perfect for exploring in a small group, as we discover traveling the breadth of the country and getting an up-close view of this natural “wonderland.”

Tour membership limited to 24 alumni and friends

Cover photo: Skogafoss, which we visit on Day 8, often features rainbows on sunny days.

fields, and lunar-like volcanic craters comprise a stunning national park. Our explorations begin with a stop at Godafoss, the “waterfall of the gods” named for the carvings of Norse gods discarded here when the country was declared Christian a thousand years ago. We continue with a walk to view the fascinating Hverfjall crater, a local landmark. Later we see the region’s unique “pseudo craters,” the boiling mud pots at Namaskard, the bizarre lava formations at Dimmuborgir, the explosive crater at Viti, and the flat volcano system at Krafla. Our last stop is at the incredible Glacial River Canyon National Park (Jokul-sargljufur), yet another of Iceland’s natural wonders, where we walk to jaw-dropping Dettifoss, Europe’s most powerful waterfall and Iceland’s “Niagara.” After this day of stunning scenery, we arrive at our hotel in time for dinner together tonight. B,L,D

Day 6: Lake Myvatn/Husavik This morning we visit Hljodaklettar Echo Cliffs, where we explore the labyrinth of “echoing rocks” created by the spiral basalt formations of the arches and canyons here. We travel next to Asbyrgi, a huge canyon enveloped by towering walls; in the middle of the partially wooded canyon sits a huge hoof-shaped rock called “The Island.” Then we continue on to Husavik, Iceland’s whale-watching capital. With its colorful houses, geothermal sea baths, and various museums, Husavik has become a favorite destination for travelers. B,D

Day 7: Lake Myvatn/Reykjavik/Selfoss This morning we fly to Reykjavik; upon arrival we coach to Thingvellir National Park, known both for its historic import and as the place where the fissure between the geological plates of North America and Europe is most evident. It’s also a gem of nature, with canyons, caves, waterfalls, and ponds surrounded by snowcapped mountains. We learn about the historic

parliament founded here in 930 ce, and walk along a gorge into the rift valley itself. After a lunch at a local restaurant, we depart for famed Great Geysir and Gullfoss, Iceland’s immensely popular “golden” waterfall. Then we drive down to the southern coast to the beautiful agricultural area of Selfoss. B,L

On Day 4 we visit a farm featuring famed Icelandic horses.

Day 8: Selfoss/Vik This morning we walk along the black-sand beach at Reynisfjara, lined with co-lumnar basalt-filled caves. Next we visit picturesque Seljalandsfoss, Iceland’s most visited waterfall. From here we travel to nearby Skogafoss, one of Iceland’s most popular waterfalls, known for its rainbows on sunny days. After lunch on our own in lovely Vik, Ice-land’s southernmost town, we’re free to explore on our own and to shop for items of locally produced wool. En route to our hotel, we stop by the Solheimajokull “sliding” glacier, so named for its rapid advance in the 1990s. B,D

Day 9: Selfoss/Reykjavik Heading back to Reykjavik today we travel through “saga” country, the setting of one of the country’s famous medieval stories. We stop along the way to see the geothermal exhibit at the Hellisheidi Power Plant, Iceland’s largest. Upon arrival in Reykjavik, we have lunch at a local restaurant then embark on a city tour of the Icelandic capital. Home to more than half of Iceland’s population, Reykjavik ranks as one of the world’s safest and cleanest cities. Later, we check in at our hotel. Dinner tonight is on our own in this stylish city. B,L

Day 10: Reykjavik Today is at leisure to explore and enjoy Reykjavik as we please; those who wish can join in an optional tour to the Blue Lagoon for a soothing bath in geothermal waters rich with silica, sulfur, and other minerals. The city is a sophisticated European urban center with museums and galleries; theater, symphony, and dance; boutiques and restaurants. Tonight we cel-ebrate our adventure over a farewell dinner. B,D

Day 11: Depart for U.S. Today we depart for the airport and our return flights to the U.S. B
